Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, on Monday said he will hold a private funeral on January 20 when United States, U.S, President-elect, Donald Trump, is due to be inaugurated as President.
Speaking in Lagos, the revered playwright however stated that the funeral is to mourn the death of Nigeria’s common sense, and not to mourn with U.S citizens.
“Our common sense is totally lost. I am embarrassed sometimes that I occupy the same nation space with some people,” he said.
Recall that the Nobel laureate who had said he would destroy his Green Card should Trump be elected as President, on Thursday last week confirmed that he had carried out his earlier pronouncement.
